If this is allowed then Sutton will be Just like Morden in 5 to 10 years. If you build it they will come. All week its like the united nations in Morden but on fridays its like driving through Saudi Arabia. Why is that a problem some people might say....it just is and if you don't know why you never will. There are already plenty of places like Morden round the country, Sutton doesn't need to be another one. Beware the steady creep, we've got the halal shop and the kiosk like shop fronts in the high street. A proper mosque will be the nail in the coffin of Sutton as we know it.

Good heavens, where were you NIMBYs when the council planned to build an incinerator that will blight our health and environment for decades? If the building is disused and traffic etc can be accommodated, what's the issue with establishing a place for worship for a community? Let the application for the mosque be considered on facts, not the fears of the ignorant and prejudiced.

Labour - the party of multiculturalism. If you don't agree with them and their ideological nonsense then you are branded ignorant and prejudiced, when in fact your probably just normal. Those that have not been brainwashed by political correctness must continue to challenge these gullible folk and try to reverse what has made this country sooooooooo awful to have to live in nowadays.

People just object to the area in which they live changing so drastically as it has and will continue to do in the future. It isn't hatred towards other people it's just not wanting your area to change, at least in this way. I don't think it is unreasonable for people not to want to live somewhere that becomes full of people who don't speak their language, who stick to their own community and don't get involved with the rest of the people. The muslim/Islamic culture is fairly incompatible with our western ways and so i'd say people have a right to be concerned and not wish these changes to take place. This will always come down to the question, who asked the English if they wanted all these people to come and settle here and take over whole areas. The answer is of course no one asked the English people what they wanted, it was just foisted upon them and now we have the problems we do and the English are stigmatized as being racists bigots, when all they're doing is reacting to something that isn't really normal and is out of their control.

Traffic concerns might be valid, but for me, continuing to build mosques in this country highlights the fact that muslim migrants who settle in this country will never conform and become truly British because their own culture and beliefs will always take precedence over ours. That is why this sort of immigration is different from what has come before. The great grandchildren of the Italians, Poles, Greeks etc that came here at the turn of the last century have disappeared into the mix. All that is left is the odd surname and that is it. They raised their children to grow up speaking English and conforming to our way of life. I doubt this will be the case this time round.

Multiculturalism is a fact, not a political agenda. We live in a shrinking world, where we must learn to live alongside those who are different if we are to thrive, do business, learn and grow. To blindly oppose this without setting out a clear position as to why IS ignorant.

Open your eyes and ears, there is nothing bigoted, nasty or ultra about local concern. There maybe a sense of uncertainty, insecurity and worry that is localised, which through constructive conversation and commenting could allay fears people may have. Your rant SouthLondoner65 is really not helping to educate anyone about anything, it is what it is. an uneducated rant. Such a shame.

@ Binsanity:

Morden Mosque belongs to the Ahmadiyya movement, which is a different branch of Islam from the Deobandis that run the Sutton mosque. Different sects and branches of Islam don't usually share the same mosques in the same way that Catholics, Anglicans, Methodists and Baptists don't usually share the same churches.

But even if the Sutton and Morden mosques were owned by the same branch of Islam, is there some kind of mosque quota I haven't been told about? Or are Muslims allowed to run as many mosques as their numbers can support, just like every other religion in this country?

@Binsanity, AKA BIGOTsanity,
I think you'll find I'm very well educated actually. What I resent so deeply in people like you is the fact that you get so worked up about such uninteresting 'news' items. There are a small minority of Muslims in Sutton (who, incidentally, are just as British as you and I) and due to the general world population gradually increasing, they may well need one more place of worship (it's not as if there are many mosques in the borough anyway). There are several churches in the town centre, so why not have a mosque too to accomadate our small Muslim population? You don't like multiculturalism. Indeed, you probably don't like Muslims full stop, whether they are British or not. A mosque opening in Sutton will not effect you, mate. All it will do is help serve a part of our community. You may claim that they live separate lives and want nothing to do with 'us' and that most are a bunch of benefit scrounging immigrants or something of that bigoted ilk but that would be simply untrue. You need to learn to accept people and welcome people - NOT spurt out a load of sensational drivel making out that a mosque opening up will somehow ruin the fabric of our town. If the prospect of a mosque opening in Sutton makes you feel 'insecure' then may I suggest you see a psychiatrist to help you combat your irrational concerns and worries? Good day, sir... Do enjoy your week reading the Daily Mail and commenting angry rants on the UKIP Facebook page! Such fun!

"You need to learn to accept people and welcome people"

Why? Who says so? This is why so called racism continues and will continue in this country. Your way of looking at things has been forced onto the whole population. When something as major as mass immigration is forced onto a country, without any democratic legitimacy, then trouble will always be there. The rise of the so called far right has begun because at last more people are seeing what is going on. In the 50s and 60s it was a few towns up north and parts of London that were effected. Through the 70s and 80s these areas became more densely populated with immigrants, both 1st and 2nd generation. Come the late 90s and into the 2000s with the New Labour sanctioned fresh wave of mass immigration and at last the problem has started to spread into far more towns and cities around the country. All of a sudden a lot more people are being exposed to mass immigration that hadn't been effected before. This along with the mess the current political class has made of the country is the reason why people are voting Ukip and BNP in greater numbers every time there is an election. Mark my words, Ukip will be the 3rd party in England come the next election and then finally you brainwashed idiots will start to take notice.

I can see Sutton Council's ruling party banking on a few cheap votes here. I believe the map is wrong and we're looking at what was, the Karate club, or nearby.

It's impractical and not surely not worthy of the number of muslims we have in the locality? The parking and congestion problems are obvious. There are plenty of other places to worship for muslims in the area.

This one of a few buildings that are being appropriated for muslim worship in the borough, against the will of local residents and common sense.

Our Islamic friends seem to appreciate the inclusion our society offers on one hand, but on the other they push the boundaries at every opportunity. Perhaps they are grateful that in this society, we have two hands?

Enjoy your abuse of the ‘thumbs up/down’ system – you’re clearly an expert. I doubt this news item has had more than a couple of hundred individual views. Like the worst of political manipulators, you clearly feel the need to bolster your views by manipulating the numbers.

The building is under planning application to change usage. The building is staying the same. The only issue is the parking outside. It is being changed from a sport leisure (Karate studio) to a place of Worship. I presume it is a 'retrospective planning application? At weekends the building is very busy. The parking is not good especially when there are cars facing the oncoming traffic beyond the designated bay for parking and even then they are parked half on the pavement. Carshalton Road narrows off at that point. The top end of Langley Park Road by B & Q it is a major junction and when the cars are there when people are visiting the Mosque as it stands now, getting around the vehicles is a bit tight to say the least.

The building is under planning application to change usage. The building is staying the same. The only issue is the parking outside. It is being changed from a sport leisure (Karate studio) to a place of Worship. I presume it is a 'retrospective planning application? At weekends the building is very busy. The parking is not good especially when there are cars facing the oncoming traffic beyond the designated bay for parking and even then they are parked half on the pavement.

IT'S ALREADY BEING USED AS A MOSQUE!!! It has been for roughly a year now!
By breaking the Planning Regulations and using the building for a place of worship without the correct regulations in place they should have their application refused. They are breaking the law after all.......

It's a de facto mosque right now.

Look up who the Deobandis are, these are the TERRORISTS, the most extreme people you can find, they brought forth many terrorist organizations like the Taliban. But I think William Hague will be happy for the mosque to open there as he is already doing his best to get these terrorist some weapons and money in Syria.
This will definitely be considered Cultural Enrichment, especially if we can get some Re-enactment of what they did (and still do) in Afghanistan and Syria, for example slaughtering of women and children, forced conversion or extermination of other religious groups and minorities, or even chewing on organs of their enemies.

I live in the Watergardens just next door to this so called "mosque" former karate club and during Ramadan you could hear the chanting and praying quite clearly up to midnight on a Sunday - not conducive to a good night's sleep for Monday morning. God help us if they get permission and the call to prayer starts at 5am every morning. I'm all for everyone getting on together but they have to have consideration for the residents who have been living there before them without this disruption.

So just because people express unease and a dislike for what is being proposed they are automatically narrow-minded. No, they just don't see things the way you do. As for those that do integrate, well, they are in the minority and are themselves being let down by the rest who do not. That will be the tragedy in the end. If immigration was kept in check and the New Labour open door policy hadn't happened then I think this country would have just slowly absorbed those that had come to settle since the 50s and life would have carried on in the same vain, but now there are just too many immigrants in the country, changing the country in some places and it is to the detriment of all of us. Just wait until January and the gates are opened to the Romanians and Bulgarians, that will be the tipping point. I think its going to get pretty dark and awful in this country and it will be the ruling elite and those that follow them's fault.

Without the tremendous contribution that Muslim people make to the UK, many of our dental surgeries would have no dentists, our hospitals would be (even more) short of doctors, our chemists short of pharmacists. And that is just for starters. There are hundreds of thousands of people who follow the religion of Islam in the UK; why try to deny them a small mosque in which to observe their faith?

Yes, they do us a real big favour by doing all these well paid jobs. The question you should be asking is why do we not have enough English doctors, surgeons, nurses etc. in this country. We've got some of the best universities in the world and up until a few years ago, before they dumbed it all down, our education system was capable of producing pretty educated school leavers, so why such a shortage? It's not exactly an undesirable job, with its good wages and status etc.

As for peoples feelings, well, i'm fairly sure they're not interested in what us infidels are saying anyway and I would be against any faith other than CofE building a place of worship because it just continues the segregation of different communities within this country. I don't think all these different and alien religions should be encouraged. Religion in this country was slowly on the way out. Now it is back and growing and I don't think it is the way to progress. We're being dragged back. Having to debate about burqas and hijabs etc. People burning flags and beheading people. Its like being back in the dark ages.
